Modules can be equipped with solar panels, wind turbines, water heating, water filters, diesel generators, biogas systems, water tanks and atmospheric water generators. All modules have four steel columns, each 2500 mm. They allow the modules to be placed on uneven terrain, such as a 450 slope. Modules can be placed on top of each other to create a three story building.
